I'm really upset about it, but, after sleeping on it, I'm glad it at least got 5 seasons. That's a pretty good run. I'll probably tune into TBS more to have it on in the evenings when I'm not watching any other shows.

well Hulu is already talking about picking it up. But like i said in the other thread, Brooklyn99 has a few more great seasons in it.

Captian Holt still has a big arc to finish. there are many ways they could go with Sarge and Rosa. And Jake and Amy could break up, have a kid, etc. Imagine Jake and Amy bringing the kid to the office and having Terry and Boyle in costumes taking care of the kid.

the only character i do not like is Gina.

I am with you, I think Gina is annoying and doesn't bring much. Holt always has me cracking up with his delivery.

I don't mind gina, her character has zero range and you know exactly what to expect from her but a chuckle at a lot of her one liners.

Honestly there isn't a single recurring character on the show I don't like aside from adrian pimento, who absolutely sucks. I want ot fast forward everytime he's on the screen.

Fox basically cancels everything outside of their animated series.

I'm awaiting news of the Exorcist getting the can. I'm just surprised that decision hasn't already been made.

Agreed. It's amazing how great Doug Judy is during his yearly episode and how bad Pimento is. They are on complete opposite ends of the spectrum.

I like Pimento, but can very easily see that I may be in the minority on that one.

Maaaaaybe if he was only in 1 episode as a small bit part I wouldn't care, but we've been exposed to way too much of him. Much like the loud annoying arse gay dude at the end of Parks and Rec, the whole "I'm loud and extreme and in your face!!!!!!" routine just grates my nerves really quick.

At least it got a second season.

Honestly, I 'm a little surprised it wasn't on FX. Seems like it would have been a good show to pair w/American Horror Story.

I'm going to laugh hard if Fox really does pick up WWE Monday Night Raw right as wrestling fans are currently so put out w/the product they are walking out of shows during the main event. LINK

It is too similar to his Rafi role in The League. He is typecasting himself.

maybe is is the same character!


he probably just doesnt have a lot of range. If you watched the Kroll Show he was the same thing in that.

Yup.

He was fine as Dennis Feinstein on Parks & Rec, but he was in a much smaller role.

He was in The League way too much, Rafi in small doses was hilarious, Rafi for a whole episode was a bit much.

I don't mind Pimento... I thought the most recent episode he was in where he was an insurance claims guy was really good.
